Just yesterday one of Britain's most prominent right-wing leaders, a man named Nigel Farage, who stoked anti-immigrant sentiments to win the referendum to have Britain leave the European Union, campaigned with Donald J. Trump in Mississippi. Farage has called for a bar on the children of legal immigrants from public schools and health services, has said women are - and I quote - 'worth less' than men and supports scrapping laws that prevent employers from discriminating based on race. That's who Donald J. Trump wants by his side when he is addressing an audience of American voters. Show less «

If Hollywood and Bollywood were how we all lived our lives, that would surprise me.

And if you were to watch American TV and our movies you'd think that we don't wear clothes and we spend all our time fighting with each other. Show less «

Some people think elections are a game: who's up or who's down. It's about our country. It's about our kids' future. It's about all of us together. Some of us put ourselves out there and do this against some difficult odds. We do it, each one of us, against difficult odds. We do it because we care about our country.

[July 3, 2007] I believe that presidential pardon authority is available to any president, and almost all presidents have exercised it. This [George W. Bush's quick commutation of the sentence of convicted perjurer Lewis Libby, aka "Scooter", former Chief of Staff of Vice President Dick Cheney] was clearly an effort to protect the White House . . . There isn't any doubt now, what we know is that Libby was carrying out the implicit or explicit wishes of the Vice President or maybe the President as well, in the further effort to stifle dissent.

I always take time to worship God in as evangelical a way as is feasible, given time and location constraints. As you know, I consider myself an evangelical Christian, really a Christian conservative, if you want to know the truth, so it's nice to be home again in the South, which I really consider my quote-unquote home even though I live in New York most of the time. Well, Washington D.C. most of the time, actually, but if I'm not there I'm in New York, of course, but always thinking about being here, in the South, my spiritual home. Show less «

[Beijing Conference 1995] Tragically, women are most often the ones whose human rights are violated. Even in the late 20th century, the rape of women continues to be used as an instrument of armed conflict. Women and children make up a large majority of the world's refugees. When women are excluded from the political process, they become even more vulnerable to abuse.I believe that, on the eve of a new millennium, it is time to break our silence. It is time for us to say here in Beijing, and the world to hear, that it is no longer acceptable to discuss women's rights as separate from human rights.These abuses have continued because, for too long, the history of women has been a history of silence. Even today, there are those who are trying to silence our words. Show less «
